Recovery Zone Training

November 22, 2019
2:30pm - 5:30pm
Trustees Dining Hall

Please join  us in welcoming Terri Spears, founding director of UNC-Greensboro’s Spartan Recovery Program to campus for a Recovery Zone Workshop Friday, November 22nd from 2:30-5:30 PM in the Trustees Dining Hall.  If you plan to attend, please watch the video The Anonymous People available for streaming in the FDC Moodle site (see the Student Success and Engagement: Accommodations, Recovery, and Support ServicesFolder ).

Recovery Zone workshops, similar to Safe Zone workshops, help faculty and academic staff become more knowledgeable about the complexities students struggling with alcoholism and addiction are navigating during the undergraduate years. For many young people, demanding academic and social pressures may have contributed to their initial addictions, so the brisk pace of life as a Furman student poses additional difficulties for maintaining recovery. This interactive workshop will empower colleagues with evidence-based strategies to support students in recovery.
